    Any current or former Posties around these parts?

    I had a go at it while in between jobs a few years ago. You can see vacancies available on the Aus Post site and can apply with all your details online. Usually they go for a recruitment drive a few times a year. Can be pretty hectic to start because of time limits to deliver stuff. Training is...

    Drug kid in Bali.....

    Agree with the parents need a kick in the arse. Some parents let their kids take too many liberties. Most intelligent people who travel also know certain countries treat druggies - users or suppliers with the harshest penalties. Never go near the crap in a foreign country unless you want to...

    DH Old School Kona DHer

    Managed to pick up an old school Kona Stab Dee-Lux frame on Ebay. Think it was a 1999 model and recently finished building it up with secondhand parts and costs a snip compared to when it was new. I remember back when they first came out and so wanted one but was in poor street back then. Rides...
